Diggun Posted May 28, 2019 Posted May 28, 2019 Here's a great article about Alcock & Brown's first flight over the Atlantic. https://specialcollections-blog.lib.cam.ac.uk/?p=18063 I worked in Cambridge University Library between 2014-16, mainly in the Manuscripts reading room, and having backstage access to the Vickers Archive was cool beyond belief. As well as all the Alcock & Brown stuff, there's miles of cine-film, kilometres of documents (including some fascinating documents relating to the first Spitfire flight), and loads more. 1
